The story
As the 2024/25 season looms, Orlando Pirates, Cape Town City, Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns have unveiled their colourful new strips for the upcoming campaign.
These kits will bring plenty of vibrance to the new Betway Premiership, with the technical sponsors of the aforementioned teams producing some bold designs.
A football jersey is also a fashion accessory and it's clear that PUMA (Sundowns), adidas (Pirates), Kappa (Chiefs) and Umbro (CT City) understand the current climate of going above and beyond for kit designs and matching it with a creative, well thought out kit launches.
Mamelodi Sundowns
Reigning league champions Mamelodi Sundowns were the first ones out of the block, with PUMA sticking to the club's traditional Home and Away colours.
Titled the "Rise.Rule.Repeat." kits, PUMA incorporated African-inspired patterns, with graphics of crowns and stars. As mentioned by PUMA, the kit design tells the Masandawana's story from its establishment (the Rise), with the Crowns representing consecutive PSL titles.
The Stars represent the men and women teams' success in the CAF Champions League (the Rule) and lasty, the unprecedented run of success which stands at 14 league titles and counting (the Repeat).
Champions take every opportunity to shine. The harder we work, the higher we rise. ?????
